At this point it feels like PS4 players are being well and truly screwed over, doesn’t it? You may remember that when Trails from Zero finally arrived here in the West last year, PC and Nintendo Switch users were treated to an enhanced version of the release.

These improvements included better texture work throughout the game, enhanced character sprites, and a record that kept track of recent dialogue.
And now, the PC and Switch versions are getting usually improvements, while the PS4 edition is once again ignored. Here’s the confirmation from publisher NIS America, in which it casually posts “there are no plans to bring these changes to the PS4 version”:
All of this is made worse by the fact that back in December, NISA teased that “updates will be coming to all platforms soon”. Apparently not!
